When the COVID lockdowns first started they were on FB pissing and moaning about how they were going to have to cancel their trip to London, Paris and Rome.
3 weeks later they were back on FB crying about not being able to get through to EDD to receive their unemployment because "If I don't get a check soon I'm going to be homeless and starving!".
Some just never learn. They'll be the same ones pissing and moaning when the actors or writers go on strike, never saving for a rainy day.

My next door neighbor are young and established writers. Don't want to get political here but they are moaning about a great script they had but are not looked at instead they looked at a sub par one by a black writer (I am sure the black writer is just as good if not they wouldn't be at this level of business). I am thinking, keep this BLM **** up, support dumb fawk Newsome, and it will get more real for you. When the gov. is getting involved with the redistribution of my wealth and fooks with my rental properties, I want all those "know it all" for everyone else hipsters to feel it too. I am in Mt Washington now, went to school less then a mile from Silverlake, the lake itself, and have seen the growth of the westside, hipster and movie folks take over there in the past 30 years. They have been moving into my area in the past 10 years. Sick of every single one of them. They do drive my property up, so I shouldn't hate them that much?
